Thanks Perderabo,
To make things a bit more clear,
I use:
<pre>
mt -f /dev/rmt/0cn rewind // no rewind, so I have everything in the same dat tape
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0cn /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s0 //mounted on /
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0cn /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s3 //mounted on /var
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0cn /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s4 //mounted on /home
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0cn /dev/dsk/c0t0d0s5 //mounted on /u01
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0cn /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s0 //mounted on /u02
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0cn /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s1 //mounted on /u03
ufsdump 0uf /dev/rmt/0cn /dev/dsk/c0t1d0s3 //mounted on /u04
</pre>
So the above commands back up the root filesystem. When it finishes, the tape is left positioned after the root backup.
How do I backup the rest (inside files). I mean when for instance I backup /var/ does this mean that I back up everything inside the /var directory including all the sub-directories?
So I have several backups on the same tape. When I put the tape on and do a ufsrestore, you see only the first backup.(I suppose I have to rewind the tape before the restore , correct?
"Want to see the second backup? Do:
<pre>
mt -f /dev/rmt/0cn fsf 1
</pre>
first. This will skip the first backup and leave you positioned at the second."
what happens when I do a ufsrestore -i
Am I able to choose ??
Thank you for your help

Hi every body,
Is it possible to connect two servers Back-to-Back (Point-to-Point) using HBA adapters & using Fiber.
Note it is direct connection & there is no switches between the servers.
I'm concern about using HBA adapters, it is possible or not.
Thanks in advance. :) (3 Replies)
